Holding Onto My Man Chapter 45

The news about the mission to fight the secret instance super boss was released in the game world as early as a month ago, so many people began to prepare for it. On this day, Gu Bai ate dinner early in high spirits, returned to his room, and put on the game helmet to enter the game world.

He entered the game world at 8:30pm, but the task began at 9:00pm, so there was still half an hour left. However, there were already many players in the world, making it very lively.

Standing in front of the large Nuo Valley scene simulation, aside from those that didn’t join any sects and thus came in teams of two or three, were all powerful players from the game’s major sects.

It was very obvious that they wanted to do their best to gain honor, fame, and the reward for their sect. The temptation of 3 million yuan and worldwide recognition wasn’t small.

Looking from afar, the players of the same sects all had their characters wear their sect colors. Seeing them gather together was very stunning, making the surrounding sect-less players shake their heads. It seemed like this time, this grand prize couldn’t be obtained. It would still be pretty good if they could get some other benefits from this large task. Among them, Tang Linyi’s Guiyun Sect was the most prominent.

Therefore, Gu Bai’s eyes naturally focused on Guiyun Sect’s team and he saw Song Xianxun immediately. It wasn’t that Gu Bai intentionally sought her out, but she was wearing high-quality God level Immortalization stage equipment, yet she was only at the Core Foundation stage, so how could anyone not notice her. Coincidentally, when he saw Song Xianxun, Song Xianxun also saw him. Immediately, she and her good sister Wang Lele’s “Nature Beauty” game character walked up to him.

[Human] Ningbo Fairy: Why are you here?!

Song Xianxun was obviously surprised. She thought that Gu Bai didn’t appear for several months because the other player had already been hunted down, regressed back to level one due to Ling Chen’s kill order, and didn’t dare to come out again. But Gu Bai came out again today and, looking at the level of the other party, Gu Bai was actually already God level!

[Human] Shangguan Yu: If you can come, why can’t I come? It’s unexpected that this character of yours still lives.

Gu Bai smiled with his arms crossed as he spoke. Originally, the lively world became quiet as the two started talking. All the players focused on watching the noisy gossip.

After all, previously, the kill orders about “Shangguan Yu” and “Ningbo Fairy” caused a lot of excitement in the world for many days. In addition, at this moment, “Ningbo Fairy” was the partner of “Tang Qingyun”, a God player on the expert list. Such a famous name naturally attracted a lot of attention.

[Human] Let Go of That Buddhist Nun: It turns out that these are Shangguan Yu and Ningbo Fairy. Oh my God, I finally saw the two celebrities of the forum.

[Human] Foolishly Going Into The Abyss Is Naturally Meng: En, en. Yes, the feud between these two people is very deep indeed….

[Human] Long Dark: ……

Song Xianxun became extremely angry when she heard Gu Bai’s words. If it wasn’t for Gu Bai’s kill order on her, how could her character still only be at the Core Formation stage? Additionally, Tang Linyi wanted her to be able to participate in the mission, so he spent money to help her ascend back to the Core Formation stage.

The moment she thought about how she was chased and killed twice before, Song Xianxun became even more angered, and Wang Lele beside her also followed along and started cursing at him.

[Human] Nature Beauty: You disgusting ladyboy, how could we still be at this level if you hadn’t bullied us!

[Human] Shangguan Yu: I’m a ladyboy? Which eye of yours saw it? Be careful with what you say, or I’ll report you for slander! Do you want me to beat you to the ground now?

The word ladyboy made the original host’s emotions in Gu Bai’s heart rush up, and he couldn’t help but talk back. In the plot, Song Xianxun and her little sister always called the original host this every time, infuriating the original host into fighting her.

[Human] Ningbo Fairy: Shangguan Yu, don’t be so arrogant! Do you think that I’m afraid of you!?

[Human] Nature Beauty: Exactly, this isn’t your place. You’re a ladyboy! People on the forums have already exposed you. You’re a man playing a female character, you’re disgusting! Nauseating…

Song Xianxun was indignant, and Wang Lele also chimed in, scolding and then making a vomiting sound to infuriate him.

If he was the original host, he would’ve been furious, but this was just childish bickering for Gu Bai. He wasn’t angry at all, he was smiling and cheerful instead.

[Human] Shangguan Yu: I like playing with female characters, because I enjoy it. Who said that men couldn’t play female characters? Why am I disgusting? … Besides, I leveled my character myself, unlike you two Core Formation newbies who dare to wear high-quality God level equipment. Sure enough, there’s nothing better than snagging a rich person. These words aren’t wrong!

In this game, it wasn’t like men hadn’t played female characters before. On the contrary, many boys would set up a female account to pick up pretty girls…

Before, everyone didn’t think about it, however hearing this now, a few male players’ complexions became weird. That’s right, who said that boys couldn’t play female characters… didn’t girls also play male characters?

Other female players also listened to Gu Bai’s words, and their gazes directed at Song Xianxun were filled with loathing. This small newbie Song Xianxun had snatched away a super popular God in the game—many people were jealous.

It was normal for female characters to approach male characters under the guise of practice, but in fact, most female characters played on their own. Song Xianxun climbing up by completely depending on a man like that, even if the man was a great God, was something people couldn’t accept deep down in their hearts.

Song Xianxun and Wang Lele became flustered and were just about to go find Tang Lingyi to defend them, when the entire game world shook. Slowly, a large group of people on mounts arrived.

They saw that the equipment of the group of players had been adjusted to a pure black color. From a distance, it could be seen that the group had more than 1,000 people, which was extremely shocking.

The maximum amount of players a sect could have was 1,000 people, and to be qualified to participate in the task this time, a player had to be at least at the Core Formation stage.

Tang Linyi’s Guiyun Sect only had around 200 people who were qualified to participate, but this newly arrived group was almost full. At a glance, it could be seen that they were all wearing high-quality equipment, and the worst stage among them was at the Demigod stage.

It should be known that being at the Demigod stage already made one a small God rank in the game. There were actually so many experts in this sect!

[Human] Season of Boiled Precipitation: I-it’s the demons’ Devil Sect!

[Demon] Tranquil Quiet: Ah, ah, ah, look at that Qianmo Pei character. He’s the boss of the demon race. Two months ago, he defeated the former number one player, September Is Not Over. The new number one is Qianmo Pei!

[Human]: Don’t Lie to Me for Reading Less than You: Wow, look at the equipment on him. The armor is Immortal rank! A-ah, the halberd is actually a Divine weapon!!!!

Qianmo Pei’s appearance caused a big uproar among the players on site. Although there were many God level players at the scene, there were none who could compete with him.

Nevermind the fact that his entire body was covered with top level high-quality equipment, just the Divine rank weapon in his hands was enough to stun someone. At this moment, there was no one else in the game world with a Divine rank weapon.

The Guiyun Sect, which was previously being watched by everyone, fell short when compared to Qianmo Pei’s Devil Sect.

Some of the players that were from smaller sects walked towards Qianmo Pei, smiling apologetically towards him.

[Human] Liu Yunshang: God Qian is also interested in the task this time? In that case, we won’t block the way.

As soon as he said this, he immediately took his own people to the side to make way. With just a few words, the large crowd retreated to the sidelines, and no one dared bump into Qianmo Pei.

They couldn’t do anything. Since they were no match for him, they had no other choice but to avoid him. As they were in the later stages of cultivation, if they were killed, it would take them a lot of time and money to recover their cultivation. Besides that, they would also provoke a super game God. It wasn’t worth it!

Tang Lingyi was also afraid that the Devil Sect would get ahead of them, so he began to prepare his people to enter the task, as they could talk more afterwards.

Song Xianxun, Wang Lele, and Ling Chen though, were stunned stupid when they saw Qianmo Pei. They obviously recognized that he was the player that was trapped in the Devil Cloud Cave before. He didn’t even change his name.

For a while, these several people were terrified. It was a good thing, that at that time, they spoke to him on their side accounts. Otherwise, the matter of Song Xianxun having stupidly offended this person would’ve been enough for them to be killed down to level one several times!

Gu Bai stared at Qianmo Pei, who was walking toward him. The originally confident him was now crying tears silently in his heart, continuously crying that it wasn’t right and that it wasn’t supposed to be like this.

In the plot, though Qianmo Pei was powerful and a super God, he wasn’t as strong as he was right now—wearing top level high-quality equipment and holding a Divine rank weapon.

Not only that, but when they previously met, Gu Bai had killed him and caused him to lose a cultivation level. It wasn’t possible to get back to that level in less than half a year, yet Qianmo Pei not only gained back the level, but also seemed to be stronger.

It was over. He had treated Qianmo Pei like that then. Now that the other person had returned so strongly, Gu Bai would definitely be cut to pieces. Thinking of this, Gu Bai quietly began to retreat. The original host’s wish of being well-regarded in the game wasn’t urgent. There would be more chances in the future, so right now it was best for him to sneak away.

[Demon] Qianmo Pei: You, wait a moment!

Just as Gu Bai backed away, Qianmo Pei, who was sitting on a black unicorn, spoke.

Then in the blink of an eye, Gu Bai tragically found that several demons had flashed in front of him, blocking his way. In addition, a forbidden spell was then casted on him, leaving him with no chance to even exit the game directly.

The players of the world once again gazed at Gu Bai and couldn’t help but mourn for him. During this period, Qianmo Pei’s reputation swept across the whole forum with the speed of a tornado. As he was ranked number one on the expert list, there was no one who didn’t know of him.

In addition, the other person acted the same as his character’s race. The demon race players were always arrogant, and most of the players who played as the demon race were nouveau riche. They bought all kinds of expensive, high-quality equipment without a care and were people that couldn’t be defeated or offended.

Now this “Shangguan Yu” was named and stopped by Qianmo Pei. It really was unlucky of him. Song Xianxun and Wang Lele both gloated at his misfortune.

Gu Bai was also lamenting his misfortune in his heart. Why was it that he felt this time’s task was so much more difficult for him to do? Furthermore, the way the plot was developing wasn’t correct at all.

He tried his best to stop Tang Linyi from liking Song Xianxun. In the end, the two still met each other and got together, ruining his hard work.

He had also calculated how to defraud Qianmo Pei. Even if this man sought revenge in the future, Gu Bai’s task would be finished, and he would quit the game world, so he was simply not afraid at all. But who knew that Qianmo Pei returned so strongly at this time.

[Human] Shangguan Yu: God Qian, I don’t know what you need me for?

Taking a deep breath, Gu Bai turned around and firmly decided to act stupid.

[Demon] Qianmo Pei: Come over here!

Qianmo Pei’s devilish, domineering character’s face was ice cold. Because of the reality simulation, all the players present could feel the powerful, cold pressure emitting from his body. The great God really deserved to be a great God, as even speaking a sentence made him look so cool!

Gu Bai had no choice but to force himself to walk over and stopped three meters away from Qianmo Pei. He couldn’t help it. He couldn’t even quit the game because of the forbidden spell cast on him by Qianmo Pei. If he was cut into pieces, he had no choice but to take it.

As his heart filled with tears, he stared at the man who dismounted from the black unicorn and was ready to accept his death. However, when the other person came in front of him, he didn’t directly attack him.

[Demon] Qianmo Pei: Lift your head up.

The man’s expression was still cold, but it was a little bit less cold. Everyone present was confused, and Gu Bai also didn’t know how Qianmo Pei wanted to punish him to avenge himself. Facing the demon race game character, Gu Bai obediently obeyed and raised his head.

Then the next moment, his waist was held by the other person, and the game character of Qianmo Pei kissed him. Because of the reality simulation, Gu Bai seemed to feel that his lips were really being kissed.

Gu Bai: （⊙o⊙）Dumbstruck!!!!

[Human] Ningbo Fairy: …

[Human] Nature Beauty: ……

The originally quiet surroundings became even quieter, and only the demon players dared to speak.

[Demon] Half Crazy Half Flirty: What, what, what is going on…

[Demon] Winner Is King: It turns out Boss is here to pick up a girl!

[Demon] Loser Warms the Bed: You’re wrong, I heard that Shangguan Yu was a man in real life.

[Demon] Winner Is King: Really? Then he must be as cute as you, baby!

[Demon] Loser Warms the Bed: Roll….

Everyone: …..

AAAAAAAAA we get some action…is that ML I see
